The goal of this request was to estimate the duration of use and duration of follow-up time for patients dispensed non-insulin antidiabetic drugs in the Sentinel Distributed Database (SDD). This request contains two reports:

Report 1 estimates the length of follow-up time for patients diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and for patients dispensed non-insulin antidiabetic drugs.

Report 2 summarizes utilization of non-insulin antidiabetic drugs available in the SDD.

Data from January 1, 2008 to January 31, 2018 from 17 Data Partners contributing to the SDD were included in this report. This request was distributed to Data Partners on June 28, 2018.
